About Me


Stewart King began his career as a solo artist by playing venues throughout York and the surrounding area. He slowly built a reputation as a solo artist defined by his honest songwriting and poignant lyrics.
After two years of live performance and the successful launch of his first solo release, The Red Tape E.P. (2006), Stewart decided to take a break from the live circuit to commence work on a full length album entitled ‘Satori’. The album was officially released on 1st August 2009 and copies can now be ordered in CD format via email , or downloaded via Itunes, Napster, Amazon, Emusic and Rhapsody.
Stewart recently finished a small tour where he performed songs from the album with a crack squad of musicians, closing the door on over four years work. Now with a new decade looming and a completely clean slate, Stewart is shortly to commence writing new material - watch this space!
Stewart also maintains several side projects, which continue to go from strength to strength. The first being $kint – a rock covers band that enjoys the reputation of being one of, if not the best covers band in the county. More recently, Stewart has embarked on a new project with drummer P.G. Branton, INSPADES.INC , which promises to redefine the boundaries of modern heavy rock.
